I can't figure out how to create accounts for my kids. They are under 13 and there's a checkbox saying people under 13 can't create an account.

Use the time honored technique of lying on the birthdate form.

I like to pick 1901, so it looks like a 123 year old is playing The Witcher 3.

Yeah, maybe they should have some sort of 'young child' accounts for children under 13, that are required to be in a family with more restrictions on store access and such.

I there are some regulatory hurdles as well, like data collection and ratings board stuff. It would probably take some work to implement those.

IIRC I'm 5 years older on steam than reality because of this. From my family's first computer onward, I am the parental controls.
